Milton Bradley 1836-1911 published the first American book on the kindergarten Paradise of Childhood in 1869 and soon began producing toys teaching kits kindergarten manuals newsletters and children's books. He is largely responsible for popularizing Froebel Gifts a movement of teaching toys originating in Germany and board games in America. Numerous publishers followed Bradley's suit in the latter nineteenth century. These publications and products came in the wake of milestones like the first English-language kindergarten in the United States which was founded by Elizabeth Palmer Peabody 1804 – 1894 in Boston in 1860. Bradley's eponymous business enterprise would outlive him by some seven decades before eventually being bought by Hasbro in 1984.</p> Milton Bradley Co., hardcover
